18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV)

The Nations are Coming to Us

In Matthew 28 Jesus commands us to “Go and make disciples of all nations” but sometimes we don't have to "go" very far. Thanks to the rise in international students in the U.S. the nations are coming to us!

California has more international students than any other state in the U.S.

Join Bridges International in reaching out to the nearly 8,000 international students in San Diego.

Millions of people in the world today have never heard a clear presentation of the gospel

“We talk about the Second Coming of Christ when over half the world has yet to hear of the first…”

- OSWALD J. SMITH

A 2016 report on college enrollment indicated that 54% of international students in the U.S. come from China, India, and Saudi Arabia, all of which are strategic countries in the 10/40 window. How they are influenced on campus will have a lasting effect on their lives and the countries they will return to.
Bridges international is making every effort to share the gospel with the over 1,000,000 international college students studying in the U.S. who are especially open to Christians who love them.

Service

Bridges International wants to serve international students and equip them to serve others. We offer a variety of services, from airport pick-ups to help with English. But we don’t want it to stop here. We want to give them opportunities to serve others, too.

Social Connections

Relationships are an essential part of everyone’s life especially international students. When they transition to life in America they often find it difficult to make friends. Bridges International can help them connect and make friends from all over the world allowing them to enjoy their time in the U.S.

Spiritual Conversations

Bridges International is a Christian organization. Though open to students from any religious or non-religious background, we offer opportunities for international students to explore the Bible and understand Jesus Christ in a safe environment.

Student Leadership

Bridges International seeks to equip international students to be global leaders. We want to help them lead other people, both during their studies and later in life.
